CALL MEETING.

nance Act.

There was a special session of the city
council yesterday afternoon, convening at 4
o'clock. Mayor Allen had arrived on the
previous evening and was present. and all
councilmen, excepting Buckridge and John
son.
The call was for meeting to consider the
ordinance already submitted to the council
concerning changing the route of the Wich-
ita & Suburban motor line company. Some
how the news of the meeting had gained
considerable circulation, judging from the
number of spectators present. 1t was no
ticeable that quite number OF the gentle
men interested in the old company were
on hand. It had been rumored that
the new company was going to ask the coun-
Gil for part of Main street where the old
company has a track and compel the latter
to take up their line. That rumor, It was
tn ought, brought the representatives Of the
old company to the front. Nothing of that
sort, however, was attempted and the
alarm proved false.
The ordinance respecting the wishes OF
some parties on North Market street was
passed The route at present is as follows;
Up Water street from Douglas avenue to
Tenth street, east en- Tenth to Market street,
north on Market to Thirteenth, east
on Thirteenth to Fourth ave
nue., north on Fourth to city limits
The ordinance also grants the privilege OF
laying track on Fifteenth street from Fourth
avenue east to the city limits.
1t will be observed that the old company
has a track on Tenth street between Water
and Main streets The new company was in
structed to go on either side of their track.

STILL CLIMBING
Wichita Ball Club Like Every
thing Else, Winning Right
Along.
Arkansas City's Club Can't Play Ball
With the Champions When the
Later Half Try.

The third game of the championship series
between Wichita and Arkansas City was
played yesterday before about 1,Oo0 people
The game on the part of the home club, who,
although they made three fielding errors, did
splendid work all around. Smith pitched the
best game he has shown here. Perkins gave
him excellent support, catching some very
hard balls, with only one passed ball.
For the visitors Long was not hit quite as
hard as he was in Mondays game. Nc
Caffrey had three passed balls, and their
fielding support was simply terrible. The
one run they did get in was started by an
error of Drummond who fumbled the ball
and allowed the batter to get to first.
The first run was made in the first half OF
the first inning by ''Ducky" Hemp, who got
to first on hit and came in on Whistler S
hit. The visitors got one man as far as
third but he died there.
No more runs were made by either side
until the first half of the fifth, although the
home boys got in several hits. The game
was very close and good exhibition up TO
that time In the fifth, after two men were
out, Hemp raped the ball for base hit
Scharringhausen did likewise and Is Whistler
stepped up to the plate the crowd applaude1
and he gladened their hearts by one OF his
regular drives toward the gate, making the
left fielder turn his back on the crowd and
chase after three bagger which brought In
Hemp and Scharringhausen
In the sixth for Arkunsas City Hunter got
to first on Drummond's tumble and after
wards scored. In the seventh Rose hit safe
and came in on ScharriDghausen's long
hit to center, and the latter scored later.
Rose scored in the ninth, making the score Z
to in favor of the champions.
The following is the score complete:

building up of another city and another
state. During the years you have welded
the pencil in Wichita we have known you
